I always get Omnislash on Disc 1. It's a tradition for me to have built up Cloud's limit bar and ready to use Omnislash in the Jenova-LIFE fight. Given what happens at that point, I figure it's fitting for Cloud to go nuts. P.S. For GP, I just got good at the basketball mini-game in the Wonder Square. It's pretty easy to rack up a good amount, enough to get Omnislash anyway.
@Fall after you push the shoot button, it's a split second after you notice the animation ends that you let go. Hard to explain but that's the best I can do lol
I always unlock all the limit breaks on every character as soon as I get them, save a few. But right after I get the tiny bronco, I go limit grind to get them all, then I go get Omnislash.
@@potatos_4_free Yeah, I got to max 300 gp couple of times. Thing is, you don't really even have to be good at it. I usually grind 200 gp which should be enough to get Omnislash. Even if you only got 4-5 gp per play, you still only need 40-50 games which take less than hour. Super dunk is best way to get gp before you get your own gold chocobo late game.
Works perfectly, didn't think I could do this so quickly! Here's a tip for reel manipulation on the switch version: 3 results per reel, you want result C, so try to stop it on A and it will tend to skip A and B. Literally just as A is coming into view. It will tend to skip two results and land on the one you want. Timings are different on steam and OG playstation so this probably won't work on those. I had about an 80% success rate and now have all the goodies from battle square! Btw, long range materia is useful for some enemies.
White Cape for frog and mini, element and destruct or odin to stop death, stone gives 30 sec for you can use a soft and heal materia to heal poison or regen to counter it. The status effects where getting me when I first tried getting omnislash pre temple. My problem was using jem ring to counter the stone and and using transform to cure frog and mini but the amount of times frog can happen makes it the more worthwhile status to block.

Born in 87. Tooks months maybe even a year to beat this whole game as a kid. Downloaded the app of it on my phone for the Nostalgia played it as a grown 30 something year old man and beat it in 1 week in my spare time and never lost a single battle. Only battles i did lose were emerald and ruby weapon (the 2 battles I NEVER won as a kid) look at a few strategies took what i could from them made my own strategies for each and both of those fights became VERY EASY. Contrary to popular belief I believe Emerald Weapon is the harder actual fight of the two but Ruby weapon would be harder to figure out on your own without being guided on what to do. Look at me a 35 yr old man with 3 kids happy about avenging my 10 yr old self's losses 🤣.
I got omnislash with 150bp but my problem was I kept getting battles where I'd only have 1 option on the drawback wheel. Not sure if I just have horrible luck with rng or what.
Yuffie is my go to here. Doom of The Living is almost as good as Omni Slash, and she is a natural long ranged attacker. Casting Resist and Death Force early also help you out. I also use Added Effect and Time allot. That slows or stops most enemies.
Long range doesn't matter if she's the only party member, unless there are variants in the battle arena that can wind up with enemies in the backrow you would like to target first. But Yuffies doom of the living is basically a really good early omnislash!
@@aaron3905 You also take less damage in the back row, so having Yuffie there is a good idea. You're not losing any damage, but the enemies are. Unless they cast stuff.
@@dolphinboi-playmonsterranc9668 nope. If you're alone it doesn't matter what 'row' you're on. No teammates in front of you means you take full damage.
DotL is better than Omnislash if I recall correctly. The reason being that it being lvl3 it charges faster so you get to do more damage over time. These days I don't really use lvl4s at all.
I found an even easier way. If you have a turbo controller only. Go to the wonder square. 2 items will be needed. Turbo controller and an elastic. Go to the machine behind arm wrestling. Have cloud standing in front of the machine facing it from the playable area closest to the arm wrestling. Set up your analog stick with the elastic in the facing forward position. Have turbo set up To mash a. Then go watch a movie. Bout half hour you'll have 400
Omnislash is the best limit break in the game, until you start hitting the damage cap. In that case Yuffie’s limit breaks are better because they hit more times
@@cristianpallares7565 Mime + Counter after using omnislash can make it hit 45 times, (mime+counter)+(couter+d.blow)+(d.blow+added cut) can make it hit crap loads more times.
As I Said, When You Have The Tiny Bronco The Only REAL THREAT In The Battle Arena Is Ying/Yang! Fortunately Once You Have Him Down It's EASY! Again, NICE JOB Getting Omnislash On Disc 1! VERY EASY To Do! Also, Omnislash Costs 51200 BPs(Not 51000) On Disc 1. Counter-Attack Is GOOD, But It Can Also Be A Nuisance Against Ying/Yang, Particularly Against Yang. A Risk That You Can Either Take, Or Not Take. Aside From That, It's Good. Also One Thing You Didn't Mention About Ying/Yang: Notice How He's Super-Fast In Battle? That's Because His SPD Is 75. Add 38(In Battle Arena Enemies' Stats Are Enhanced With DOUBLE HP And 25% All Other Stats) To That And You Get 113. So Basically, Ying/Yang Has NO ATB, Like Ozma And Those YANS In Final Fantasy IX. That Is Why He Gets To Go Again RIGHT AWAY Specially If Your Not Doing Anything.
Best place to grind on disk one is in juno in the pathway towards the sub. Normally there won't be any enemies on disk one but there is a button that activates an alarm. The reason this is good is the enemies are all disk 2 enemies which means they give far more exp
After succeeding at getting Omnislash is Disk 1 the only reason to return to the Battle Arena in Disk 2. is to get W-Summon(which is basically a one stop shop materia to use every Summon in your arsenal even though what you use is down to personal preference)and if you want to go ahead and do one last Battle Arena session with both Omnislsh and W-Summon activated/equipped to unlock the final Battle Arena session and once that's done you'll receive a reward for your trouble.
I always found w-summon to be useless until weapon fights, I tend to avoid most summons in the FF series as the time cost to watch the animation is never worth. After you see it 3-5 times you dont need to see the exact same animation again and again.
I recommend using the white cape, hopefully you don’t lose accessories during this... (I meant the roll, it can decide to break your accessories. Don’t worry u still have it when u leave)
Sea Worm at Mideel beach give 200 ap which is the most for disc 1, 1300 xp, 10k gil, morph dragon scales. Slalom Monster technically gives more in a group of 3 (210ap, 4.5k gil but is rarer to see)
you're absolutely right. And before you get the bronco the best place to farm is from raising the alarm at junon, which is also great for increasing limit break levels
This is quite the grind. I mean to even get that high a level on disc 1 and all that gp. At that point many of the enemies arent even a challenge without omnislash. Its a cool novelty to achieve that early but it would make the game too boring for me afterward.
All the money being made on video games these days and none of them can compare with this masterpiece. Developers been working so hard on graphics they forgot how to make good games.
you can get gp buy the tram walking between the station/tram screen look for the guy who will randomly show up by save point (Tram/golden saucer entrance)
Level 47 on disc 1! I doubt I'm level 47 even by the time complete the game. Getting GP and BP might not take that long but by the time you factor in the levelling required as well it's unlikely this is worth it, especially given that the lvl3 limits do more damage over time when taking into account the time required to charge the limit guage. I just normally get everyone's level 3 limits as soon as I reach the Junon area and that's fine for the rest of the game. Still, interesting video that showed me some things I didn't know about the game like the Chocobo Racing stat.
For your battle points, wherever possible you want to avoid getting the same result on the reel multiple times. A result is worth its share of BP only the first time it comes up; after that, it's only worth 1 BP. So for your run that ends at about 13:00, you would have gotten even more points if you broke the Green materia instead of a second All result. At least, that was the case in the original PSX version. No idea whether that math got changed for rereleases.
i remember doing this when i was like 9 i got stuck in junon region cause i didnt know that the cannon was a town so i just kept farming the mandragora enemies and had my part to level 40 before i even entered junon. The battle square was a cake walk..also i always thought level 4 suicide would kill the user to do high damage to the target
I just want to say that you’re literally just better ik this video is old but I’m just starting the ff series and these fights were excruciating it took me like 340 gp to get the omnislash it took me 4 elixirs and 45 ethers I was freaking losing sooo bad Also I didn’t know you can kinda choose what effects debuff you I was getting half hp and mp all the time and losing on the last 2 fights
I tell you what I've played through FF7 more times than I care to admit and I've used various walkthroughs in the past, but I've followed this one of yours and just got omnislash on disk 1. This has been a blast! It's a vastly different experience. The grinds aren't that grindy, I've only messed up on Don corneo mission and I detest Fort Condor but otherwise it's been awesome. I followed your FF8 guide first which was also brilliant. Well done Fuzz!!!
Good guides. Ima try to follow your advice as close as I can. I also wanna get the best stuff from the railway shooter. Am I gonna hate myself for trying that?
… I ended up grinding so hard that I was level 61 at the battle arena. I got omni slash before temple of the ancients, but I killed everything before the bar filled up 😢
You can actually grind up a huge gil fortune before you leave midgar making this totally doable! In the train graveyard you fight Deenglows and this is the first time you can obtain ethers. If you steal 99 ethers they sell for 750gp each thats 75,000Gil, then do some time grinding for striking staffs from Elgor which also sells for 750gil. Thats a potential 150,000gil before you have even gone to shinra HQ. You can also farm hard edge from the soldiers in shinra HQ which can earn up to another 75,000gil for 99. It takes awhile to do, but you can potentially leave midgar with well over 220,000gil (ontop of monster/boss gil drops) When you reach gold saucer you should have more then enough gil to purchase GP or play games (and even purchase the 30,000gil pass without making a dent in the wallet)
I prefer the Junon Alarm grind, by that time, you have double materia growth weapons, and you spend an hour there and master All materias, you'll have ~3 All Materias at around the same level, so thats about 4 million Gil you get, before you even go to Cosmo Canyon... and you're back there for the Fort Condor battle 4 anyway, so might as well
Thx bro. Got it at lvl 54 with All the material you used. The battle arena was a little tricky in the beginning, but I got through it. All before this one.
That's how I got my GP every time, start off with the Kupo thing for your first bunch, then after Junon Alarm grind for 4 million gil, on the way back do the super dunk, quick and easy, 300gp every time (with practice)
Thanks for the video man. I got Omnislash on disk 1 pre temple as well my set up was a little different since I completed the first part of the Wutai side quest and bought the Murasame. I used the Diamond Bangle as well because of the two linked slots, and the Jem Ring as my Acc. I then Paired Elemental lvl 3 with poison and paired Added Effect with transform. Which basically gave me the same coverage as Ribbon would, while also getting extra healing when poisoned. I would just recommend to remove poison at least before the final battle just incase you get break all materia slot. Cloud was lvl 49.
Wutai early probably helps a lot, murasame is way better than rune blade or yoshiyuke. I’m still using it into disk 2 under the gaea cliff. I’ll probably backtrack after this to nab omnislash
I was struggling very hard even at lvl 50+ to complete this but eventually I got through it by having a limit ready from the start, taking on any amount of enemies lower than 2 on with counter attack, keeping regen active at all times, using beta on larger packs of 3+, and then finishing off the boss with limit, with the exception of yin yang which I used the smoke bomb trick on as my first time facing him my limit killed yang and left me in trouble with the yin suicide.
Your materia set up for battle arena is excessive. Use restore with cure 1, maybe cure 2, you do not want Regen. Then equip all your Hp plus materia and Enemy Skill with the ???? Skill. Go in with half health. You should be able to use ???? To one-shot all enemies one at a time, and the power of the weapon is less important. You can bring a full limit Guage and save Meteorain for the last round. Also, ???? Will wreck Yang and Ying. Seriously, why you bring red materia into battle arena!!!
wow....i didn't realize that there was a method to try get omnislash in disc one. when we played bit over 10 years a go ps 2 with my friend i think we only tried to get it late part at disc 2 i think. Let me tell you...there was lot of howl of frustration those whew nights when we played those minigames XD. I am not much for achievments my self but usually try go get all skills armors etc what i can in ff series games(learned from experience how frustrating it can get when hard boss comes and mop the floor your party multiple times in row less than couple minutes XD) thanks for video fuzz :)
Does anyone know the earliest you can try this method on the PS4 version. Just went to Gold Saucer right after the Corel Prison arc but the Omni Slash was not available in the Battle Arena. I noticed CID was in your party in the video. Should I wait until after I get him in Rocket Town? Great video by the way and thanks in advance!
You spend a ton of time talking, and although you talk pretty quickly, you tend to talk about stuff that doesn't need to be expanded on. Finally, your methods are really simple and obvious (grind gp however you like, grind your char to frickin lv47 and then just do what you normally do to get 56k battle points). It would've been more helpful if you figured out how to quickly get 56k with as minimal effort possible before making the video, and don't mislead and say you can do it under two hours when you're only counting your time at the coliseum. But you got people to like the video so good on you for that, I was just kinda annoyed by a lot here
Basketball is all i have to say ive gotten 300 gp more times than i can count ive played this game so much i can beat it in my sleep all u need to do is master an all materia thats it u will have more than enough gil to play the basketball game and voila 300 gp earned u can get 10000 gp if u wanted to
Steal 99 ethers and u will get omnislash easily i once got 300 25 times in a row took maybe half hour maybe 45 minutes tops this game is too easy too break😂😅
Yes I've also got omnislash on disc 1 I use it after I get it so beneficial ive got 10000 gp everytime too easy ive got 300 more times than i can count
I've played FF7 since it dropped in the States in 97 and now got platinum trophy 🏆 on the Playstation 100% completion and then the sad remake dropped and almost killed all the love most of us had playing the old school turn based classic anyone ever find out the stuff with the super sweeper and masamune blade I've heard you have the chance to keep tiny bronco and have ZACK become a party member
I play emulated ony phone and I used duck station cheats to have all limits and materia ap maxed instantly and it's so much fun 🤣 got 10 maxed out element and i just did shinra HQ. Also lvl 4 limit breaks build fast early on. Must be % based of HP or something.
It's totally worth it for more casual play. It's not that hard to get and, most importantly, it's more fun to have it that early. Speed running? Who cares, only losers speed run RPGs. Skipping 90% of what makes an RPG an RPG? Yeah, great idea.
i remember doing on the original game, if you skip most random encounters and are able to get here under level 20 or 21, i forget the cutoff because that was quite some time ago, but the enemies you get in the arena will all be weak early game enemies with little to no negative status. its probably the easiest way of getting disk 1 omnislash by far
The 3-D boxing game is luck there is no pattern to it even if you get to the final round by some miracle the in 'final round' you face an invisible opponent that you have effectively a 0% chance of hitting.
Well this sucks i Just wastws time get 66k bp for nothing cause i Need the dan pla e Thing First i rhoug incould get so'n AS i got to the gold scauers :/ never got in my othere Playthrews Thoe
First of all, master up a few All materials and sell them for 1.6M Gil each. Then enter the gold saucer. At the entrance where the Welcome door is, there will sometimes be a guy hiding in the upper left corner near the GP save point. You can repeatedly exchange 10000 Gil for 100 GP when he appears. It can take some time, due to RNG, but it's the easiest way to get GP.
you are handicapping yourself with your battle settings... you should have it set to wait.. as yours is set to "active" based on what im seeing on screen.. "wait" means when its your turn the enemy must wait for their turn. if not then the enemy can attack as much as it wants without cloud attacking
Used this video and the chocobo betting video to get omnislash in around 2 hours at this exact point in the game. Only thing I did to help was use haste and arraigned my items with things to help with debuffs close to the top. It wasn't to bad at all.
Wish I couldve had the time to play through multiple times when I had time I wouldve made more notes of my own. Id just go on memory a lot of the time 😂
I have to say that this game is quite Easy to beat you dont even need limit brakes as long as you use some farming zones early in game to get a little bit ahead of the game dificulty curve in my first playtrought I managed to kill everysingle boss only usinng attacks
I never got it on Playstation. I just did not had the Time or attention to do the Arena so much in one go. But ever since the PSP Version where i could turn off the Game anytime i want i also got it on Disc 1 ^^
If you go right outside niblehelm, mind control the alien bat lookin dudes and get them to use their powerful attack on someone with the fury status u can level all your limits ez pz.
actually you can find the gp seller if you enter and leave the entrance took me 20 times before they showed up but they do appear and wont be there next time you enter the area. but you can reload the room until they are there again.
Why didnt he mention that you can buy gp. Theres a guy that randomly shows up by the save point. Maybe he doesnt on disc 1 im not sure but thats how i always got Omni slash
Max a all materia sell it go to the machines behind the girl who exchanges gp for prizes spam them for 20 mins will have enough no effort part from the grind on all materia
Oh I never bothered with Omnislash on disk 1 aswell! Might give it a go during these holidays as I plan to go through FFVII again. :) Thanks for the content Simon. Cheers!
It's Not Very Hard To Get Omnislash On Disc 1! Heck I Even Got 3 Champion Belts, 3 Speed Plus Materia, 1 Pre-Emptive Materia, 1 Enemy Lure Materia, And 1 Fury Ring ALL Before Gongaga Easily! Takes A While But It's REALLY Easy! Also Like I Said If You Talk To That Lady At The Bottom Of The Stairs And Say "Yeah That's Right", Win A Round Of 8 Battles, And Talk To Her Again(You Can KEEP FARMING BPs Before You Speak To Her Again), She Gives You A Sprint Shoes.
Thing is - getting GP is the main bottleneck to acquiring it - not doing the battles themselves. Those are easy if you got the GP. But you've made another video about all the important stuff I guess :\ Also you'll be surprised how few people know about the "npc who sells GP on disc 2". I done about 30 playthroughs of the game since 1990s and this is the first time I heard of him.
Sweet. I just got out of the Corel prison doing the chocobo race. I'm going to try and get this ASAP since I'm around level 45 with plenty of GP from chocobo betting. I only have around 5 enemy skills at this point without the quality weapons and armor you have.

@@cristianpallares7565 Mime + Counter after using omnislash can make it hit 45 times, (mime+counter)+(couter+d.blow)+(d.blow+added cut) can make it hit crap loads more times.
Just set up materia to spam omnislash
At that point, Barret's Angermax does more damage
A maxed steal materia is nice, as then you can start with full limit bar and use mug for you a normal attack.
Just got omnislash on disk 1! Thanks for the tips! It was really useful!
As I Said, When You Have The Tiny Bronco The Only REAL THREAT In The Battle Arena Is Ying/Yang! Fortunately Once You Have Him Down It's EASY! Again, NICE JOB Getting Omnislash On Disc 1! VERY EASY To Do!
Also, Omnislash Costs 51200 BPs(Not 51000) On Disc 1.
Counter-Attack Is GOOD, But It Can Also Be A Nuisance Against Ying/Yang, Particularly Against Yang. A Risk That You Can Either Take, Or Not Take. Aside From That, It's Good.
Also One Thing You Didn't Mention About Ying/Yang: Notice How He's Super-Fast In Battle? That's Because His SPD Is 75. Add 38(In Battle Arena Enemies' Stats Are Enhanced With DOUBLE HP And 25% All Other Stats) To That And You Get 113. So Basically, Ying/Yang Has NO ATB, Like Ozma And Those YANS In Final Fantasy IX. That Is Why He Gets To Go Again RIGHT AWAY Specially If Your Not Doing Anything.
Best place to grind on disk one is in juno in the pathway towards the sub. Normally there won't be any enemies on disk one but there is a button that activates an alarm. The reason this is good is the enemies are all disk 2 enemies which means they give far more exp
Doesn’t mideel give more exp? You can reach parts of mideel with the bronco so you can fight mideel enemies a bit earlier than intended
@@jason1471 Mideel is correct, although I don't think you can get to the area with the little green insect things until disc 2
Added Effect + Mystify along with Counterattack, add Seraph Comb and Howling Moon - Berserk status = Counterattacks that hurt like the Dickens
Damn, I remember doing this back then. Was so worth it when you can basically one shot the last boss of disk one.
After succeeding at getting Omnislash is Disk 1 the only reason to return to the Battle Arena in Disk 2. is to get W-Summon(which is basically a one stop shop materia to use every Summon in your arsenal even though what you use is down to personal preference)and if you want to go ahead and do one last Battle Arena session with both Omnislsh and W-Summon activated/equipped to unlock the final Battle Arena session and once that's done you'll receive a reward for your trouble.
I always found w-summon to be useless until weapon fights, I tend to avoid most summons in the FF series as the time cost to watch the animation is never worth. After you see it 3-5 times you dont need to see the exact same animation again and again.
To me the basketball game is easiest and u can get more than 300 gp u can get the limit of 10000
how do you play that game??
Agree that’s an easy way to get GP.
@@aspect467 SERIOUS
@oo70mar are u kidding me I'd rather have 10000 gp not too hard to get sell a mastered all and there u go
@@aspect467 serious
and the first enemy we all went to use it against was ??? that bloody snake that chases after you! loool
Isn't the boxing
ock paper scissors game rigged so you cant ever beat the final opponent
I recommend using the white cape, hopefully you don’t lose accessories during this...
(I meant the roll, it can decide to break your accessories. Don’t worry u still have it when u leave)
I think a good farming area is around mideel when u get the tiny bronco...those armor things give good exp...also u can morph them into guard source
Sea Worm at Mideel beach give 200 ap which is the most for disc 1, 1300 xp, 10k gil, morph dragon scales. Slalom Monster technically gives more in a group of 3 (210ap, 4.5k gil but is rarer to see)
you're absolutely right. And before you get the bronco the best place to farm is from raising the alarm at junon, which is also great for increasing limit break levels
Hahahaha! I tried the same slot reels on Tifa's limit breaks so it will not land on a Miss and always YEAH YEAH YEAH on Beat Rush
Farm in Junon then go fight the things it’s not really that hard
This is quite the grind. I mean to even get that high a level on disc 1 and all that gp. At that point many of the enemies arent even a challenge without omnislash. Its a cool novelty to achieve that early but it would make the game too boring for me afterward.
All the money being made on video games these days and none of them can compare with this masterpiece. Developers been working so hard on graphics they forgot how to make good games.
I strongly agree games. Like these are gems
the basketball game is pretty easy to farm gp i must say. once you get the timing down it's pretty much a free win for 30 i believe.
you can get gp buy the tram walking between the station/tram screen look for the guy who will randomly show up by save point (Tram/golden saucer entrance)
He doesn't appear until disc 2
Level 47 on disc 1! I doubt I'm level 47 even by the time complete the game. Getting GP and BP might not take that long but by the time you factor in the levelling required as well it's unlikely this is worth it, especially given that the lvl3 limits do more damage over time when taking into account the time required to charge the limit guage. I just normally get everyone's level 3 limits as soon as I reach the Junon area and that's fine for the rest of the game.
Still, interesting video that showed me some things I didn't know about the game like the Chocobo Racing stat.
Battles in the Gold Saucer are less challenging on disc 1, and so this is actually easier to do.
For your battle points, wherever possible you want to avoid getting the same result on the reel multiple times. A result is worth its share of BP only the first time it comes up; after that, it's only worth 1 BP. So for your run that ends at about 13:00, you would have gotten even more points if you broke the Green materia instead of a second All result.
At least, that was the case in the original PSX version. No idea whether that math got changed for rereleases.
It has not changed. It's like Smash Bros. and stale moves still. 😅
Effing disk one!!! Got it and ready to kick ass!!!
i remember doing this when i was like 9 i got stuck in junon region cause i didnt know that the cannon was a town so i just kept farming the mandragora enemies and had my part to level 40 before i even entered junon. The battle square was a cake walk..also i always thought level 4 suicide would kill the user to do high damage to the target
I just want to say that you’re literally just better ik this video is old but I’m just starting the ff series and these fights were excruciating it took me like 340 gp to get the omnislash it took me 4 elixirs and 45 ethers I was freaking losing sooo bad
Also I didn’t know you can kinda choose what effects debuff you I was getting half hp and mp all the time and losing on the last 2 fights
Very helpful video
Tried this, took me around 3 hours to complete 😢
I tell you what I've played through FF7 more times than I care to admit and I've used various walkthroughs in the past, but I've followed this one of yours and just got omnislash on disk 1. This has been a blast! It's a vastly different experience. The grinds aren't that grindy, I've only messed up on Don corneo mission and I detest Fort Condor but otherwise it's been awesome. I followed your FF8 guide first which was also brilliant. Well done Fuzz!!!
Good guides. Ima try to follow your advice as close as I can. I also wanna get the best stuff from the railway shooter. Am I gonna hate myself for trying that?
… I ended up grinding so hard that I was level 61 at the battle arena. I got omni slash before temple of the ancients, but I killed everything before the bar filled up 😢
Basketball is quick GP and also beat the mog game once for a little chunk
holding all shoulder buttons gives infinite speed stamina in chocobo racing
You can actually grind up a huge gil fortune before you leave midgar making this totally doable! In the train graveyard you fight Deenglows and this is the first time you can obtain ethers. If you steal 99 ethers they sell for 750gp each thats 75,000Gil, then do some time grinding for striking staffs from Elgor which also sells for 750gil. Thats a potential 150,000gil before you have even gone to shinra HQ. You can also farm hard edge from the soldiers in shinra HQ which can earn up to another 75,000gil for 99. It takes awhile to do, but you can potentially leave midgar with well over 220,000gil (ontop of monster/boss gil drops) When you reach gold saucer you should have more then enough gil to purchase GP or play games (and even purchase the 30,000gil pass without making a dent in the wallet)
I prefer the Junon Alarm grind, by that time, you have double materia growth weapons, and you spend an hour there and master All materias, you'll have ~3 All Materias at around the same level, so thats about 4 million Gil you get, before you even go to Cosmo Canyon... and you're back there for the Fort Condor battle 4 anyway, so might as well
Thx bro. Got it at lvl 54 with All the material you used. The battle arena was a little tricky in the beginning, but I got through it. All before this one.
Can you imagine if you were excited and bought the championship belt by accident.
Why wasn't basketball recommended for obtaining GP? If you've got the timing down, it's an easy 300 GP for 200 gil.
i like super dunk for gp. if you get the timing down you can get 100's of gp in minutes
That's how I got my GP every time, start off with the Kupo thing for your first bunch, then after Junon Alarm grind for 4 million gil, on the way back do the super dunk, quick and easy, 300gp every time (with practice)
Thanks for the video man. I got Omnislash on disk 1 pre temple as well my set up was a little different since I completed the first part of the Wutai side quest and bought the Murasame. I used the Diamond Bangle as well because of the two linked slots, and the Jem Ring as my Acc. I then Paired Elemental lvl 3 with poison and paired Added Effect with transform. Which basically gave me the same coverage as Ribbon would, while also getting extra healing when poisoned. I would just recommend to remove poison at least before the final battle just incase you get break all materia slot. Cloud was lvl 49.
Wutai early probably helps a lot, murasame is way better than rune blade or yoshiyuke. I’m still using it into disk 2 under the gaea cliff. I’ll probably backtrack after this to nab omnislash
i personally think the basketball game is easier to win for GP, can setup autohotkey to win every single time.
I was struggling very hard even at lvl 50+ to complete this but eventually I got through it by having a limit ready from the start, taking on any amount of enemies lower than 2 on with counter attack, keeping regen active at all times, using beta on larger packs of 3+, and then finishing off the boss with limit, with the exception of yin yang which I used the smoke bomb trick on as my first time facing him my limit killed yang and left me in trouble with the yin suicide.
Theres 2 hidden ribbons before the temple of ancients u can get
Your materia set up for battle arena is excessive. Use restore with cure 1, maybe cure 2, you do not want Regen. Then equip all your Hp plus materia and Enemy Skill with the ???? Skill. Go in with half health. You should be able to use ???? To one-shot all enemies one at a time, and the power of the weapon is less important. You can bring a full limit Guage and save Meteorain for the last round. Also, ???? Will wreck Yang and Ying. Seriously, why you bring red materia into battle arena!!!
I always use the sub game for my GP; quick, easy, and lucrative for the time invested.
Also not available on disc 1 as far as I remember.
Always got the Omnislash in disc 1, so that Cloud could unleash it right after Aerith's death.
Didn't even mention the basketball game... probably because it's a bit bugged on PC.
wow....i didn't realize that there was a method to try get omnislash in disc one. when we played bit over 10 years a go ps 2 with my friend i think we only tried to get it late part at disc 2 i think. Let me tell you...there was lot of howl of frustration those whew nights when we played those minigames XD. I am not much for achievments my self but usually try go get all skills armors etc what i can in ff series games(learned from experience how frustrating it can get when hard boss comes and mop the floor your party multiple times in row less than couple minutes XD) thanks for video fuzz :)
Does anyone know the earliest you can try this method on the PS4 version. Just went to Gold Saucer right after the Corel Prison arc but the Omni Slash was not available in the Battle Arena. I noticed CID was in your party in the video. Should I wait until after I get him in Rocket Town? Great video by the way and thanks in advance!
Eh I have a lot of the limit breaks for the characters but for some reason they won't learn them. Did I miss something?
yeah, my golden rule, get omnislash after getting the tiny bronco
You spend a ton of time talking, and although you talk pretty quickly, you tend to talk about stuff that doesn't need to be expanded on. Finally, your methods are really simple and obvious (grind gp however you like, grind your char to frickin lv47 and then just do what you normally do to get 56k battle points).
It would've been more helpful if you figured out how to quickly get 56k with as minimal effort possible before making the video, and don't mislead and say you can do it under two hours when you're only counting your time at the coliseum.
But you got people to like the video so good on you for that, I was just kinda annoyed by a lot here
Basketball is all i have to say ive gotten 300 gp more times than i can count ive played this game so much i can beat it in my sleep all u need to do is master an all materia thats it u will have more than enough gil to play the basketball game and voila 300 gp earned u can get 10000 gp if u wanted to
Steal 99 ethers and u will get omnislash easily i once got 300 25 times in a row took maybe half hour maybe 45 minutes tops this game is too easy too break😂😅
X potions are a must and a few elixers are also a must and I usually have the 🎀 on cloud and turbo ethers are a must and so are hypers
Yes I've also got omnislash on disc 1 I use it after I get it so beneficial ive got 10000 gp everytime too easy ive got 300 more times than i can count
I got lucky the first time I walked in the battle arena and ho chu showed bam 🎀 equipped to cloud easy peasy got omnislash no problem man 😂😆
I've played FF7 since it dropped in the States in 97 and now got platinum trophy 🏆 on the Playstation 100% completion and then the sad remake dropped and almost killed all the love most of us had playing the old school turn based classic anyone ever find out the stuff with the super sweeper and masamune blade I've heard you have the chance to keep tiny bronco and have ZACK become a party member
I play emulated ony phone and I used duck station cheats to have all limits and materia ap maxed instantly and it's so much fun 🤣 got 10 maxed out element and i just did shinra HQ. Also lvl 4 limit breaks build fast early on. Must be % based of HP or something.
It's totally worth it for more casual play. It's not that hard to get and, most importantly, it's more fun to have it that early. Speed running? Who cares, only losers speed run RPGs. Skipping 90% of what makes an RPG an RPG? Yeah, great idea.
Super dunk is effective for me.
i remember doing on the original game, if you skip most random encounters and are able to get here under level 20 or 21, i forget the cutoff because that was quite some time ago, but the enemies you get in the arena will all be weak early game enemies with little to no negative status.
its probably the easiest way of getting disk 1 omnislash by far
The 3-D boxing game is luck there is no pattern to it even if you get to the final round by some miracle the in 'final round' you face an invisible opponent that you have effectively a 0% chance of hitting.
Well this sucks i Just wastws time get 66k bp for nothing cause i Need the dan pla e Thing First i rhoug incould get so'n AS i got to the gold scauers :/ never got in my othere Playthrews Thoe
First of all, master up a few All materials and sell them for 1.6M Gil each. Then enter the gold saucer. At the entrance where the Welcome door is, there will sometimes be a guy hiding in the upper left corner near the GP save point. You can repeatedly exchange 10000 Gil for 100 GP when he appears. It can take some time, due to RNG, but it's the easiest way to get GP.
The vid says the guy appears only on disc 2, so if you want Omnislash on disc 1 that's not an option.
1.4 million
you are handicapping yourself with your battle settings... you should have it set to wait.. as yours is set to "active" based on what im seeing on screen.. "wait" means when its your turn the enemy must wait for their turn. if not then the enemy can attack as much as it wants without cloud attacking
Used this video and the chocobo betting video to get omnislash in around 2 hours at this exact point in the game. Only thing I did to help was use haste and arraigned my items with things to help with debuffs close to the top. It wasn't to bad at all.
Wish I couldve had the time to play through multiple times when I had time I wouldve made more notes of my own. Id just go on memory a lot of the time 😂
I have to say that this game is quite Easy to beat you dont even need limit brakes as long as you use some farming zones early in game to get a little bit ahead of the game dificulty curve in my first playtrought I managed to kill everysingle boss only usinng attacks
I never got it on Playstation. I just did not had the Time or attention to do the Arena so much in one go. But ever since the PSP Version where i could turn off the Game anytime i want i also got it on Disc 1 ^^
If you go right outside niblehelm, mind control the alien bat lookin dudes and get them to use their powerful attack on someone with the fury status u can level all your limits ez pz.
actually you can find the gp seller if you enter and leave the entrance took me 20 times before they showed up but they do appear and wont be there next time you enter the area. but you can reload the room until they are there again.
Why didnt he mention that you can buy gp. Theres a guy that randomly shows up by the save point. Maybe he doesnt on disc 1 im not sure but thats how i always got Omni slash
1 hour of chocobo races? Pretty sure the basketball minigame can build gp faster, you just need to have the timing down
Did you seriously not recommend the Super Dunk? Thats the only way to go lmao 300 gp for a poultry amount of gil
How do you get it to roll only materia?
Repeat then repeat, and maybe you'll get some materia, but you'll need to sell a mastered all materia so you'll have the Gil 16:49 ✌️ out
Thanks so much for this cool vid. Learning new things about this classic every day 😂
Going to try this tonight I have cloud at level 70 and I’m still on disk one.
Holy crap
@oo70mar Junon Alert Zone after getting the buggy is the earliest powerlvl spot I can think of
It's easier on disc 1, imo. Which is pretty funny.
Easy to do right before Temple of the Ancients.
Max a all materia sell it go to the machines behind the girl who exchanges gp for prizes spam them for 20 mins will have enough no effort part from the grind on all materia
I'd like to thank you for knowing how to pronounce ReGen, so many people pronounce it "reggin" and it's maddening lol
me afk earning GP with the arm wrestling game with a controller that has auto fire and something pushing the stick towards the machine.
This game is the greatest joy of my childhood
Eh I have a lot of the limit breaks for the characters but for some reason they won't learn them. Did I miss something?
Oh I never bothered with Omnislash on disk 1 aswell! Might give it a go during these holidays as I plan to go through FFVII again. :) Thanks for the content Simon. Cheers!
It's Not Very Hard To Get Omnislash On Disc 1! Heck I Even Got 3 Champion Belts, 3 Speed Plus Materia, 1 Pre-Emptive Materia, 1 Enemy Lure Materia, And 1 Fury Ring ALL Before Gongaga Easily! Takes A While But It's REALLY Easy! Also Like I Said If You Talk To That Lady At The Bottom Of The Stairs And Say "Yeah That's Right", Win A Round Of 8 Battles, And Talk To Her Again(You Can KEEP FARMING BPs Before You Speak To Her Again), She Gives You A Sprint Shoes.
Thing is - getting GP is the main bottleneck to acquiring it - not doing the battles themselves. Those are easy if you got the GP. But you've made another video about all the important stuff I guess :\
Also you'll be surprised how few people know about the "npc who sells GP on disc 2". I done about 30 playthroughs of the game since 1990s and this is the first time I heard of him.
Hey, have you seen my disk 1 GP farm method? It has really helped people get plenty of GP for the battles!
Sweet. I just got out of the Corel prison doing the chocobo race. I'm going to try and get this ASAP since I'm around level 45 with plenty of GP from chocobo betting. I only have around 5 enemy skills at this point without the quality weapons and armor you have.
Wow, I'm impressed ..! 👏😋
Cheers Fuzz.
Just got the tiny bronco, going to do Wutai and grab a ribbon before I do this.
wtf you talking disk1 finish after you get out of midgar
wtf how can you go to that area when it on disk 2
